My only suggestion is not forcing me to register on your site to view the Premium Content! I know the object is to get viewers, but I want to see a price before I decide....that and a working update for 4.1 as I'm receiving the same parse error as everyone else.

Waiting patiently for the update

I'm not doing it to get views for my website. I actually didn't even know you had to register to view the content. My mistake on that one. The only reason I have a product page is because VBulletin is making me.

The price is $10 for lifetime updates. I am limiting this to 20 sales and I already sold 14 premiums. After that major updates will be $5.

If anyone else has questions about the premium version, please PM me, as I do not want VBulletin staff thinking I am trying to advertise the premium version.

The usergroup blocking would only apply to the actual vB page, yes? Outside of that they would still be able to access the channel via regular means?

Correct, but it is possible to hide the channel name.

Ah, true. Been awhile since I've used IRC in any fashion.

Looking forward to the update though, on my forums the chat system is over-utilized and it has caused some serious load issues and bandwidth problems.

Once I test the free version, and if all works great, for sure going with the premium.

As far as the error, it has been fixed in the premium version, I am working on the free version as we speak. A few features will be brought to the free version as well.

Other than that, if anyone has any suggestions, free or premium. Let me know.

Thank you for responding, and thanks for the update on the problem. I wait patiently for the free version to test out as I hate Ez-IRC [mostly due to it using it mibbit as a connection medium].

All is fixed! I will be adding a popout option to the full version. It will be added within the hour.
